Here's a quick lap in a slightly modified 2013 Camaro SS 1LE. This 3800 pound Camaro has full length headers, a cold air and a custom tune netting 426 whp. Bilstein PSS10 coilovers with custom spring rates and Vorshlag camber plates. Cobra Suzuka racing seats, 19x11" Forgestar CF5 wheels and 305/30/19 Hankook RS3 tires (200 treadwear). This was Terry's first time to track this car and he did 5 hot laps with a best of 1:22.56, a 1:23.17 before that, and a 1:23.46 after.
Brakes were rock solid and G-LOC R10 pads with custom Vorshlag brake cooling gave the driver ultimate confidence for reliable stopping power. Terry drove two other cars that same day - a C7 Corvette Grand Sport and a C6 Z06 - see the Vorshlag youtube channel for those videos.
